galaxy tab 10.1v

The Galaxy Tab 10.1 already had some support for CyanogenMod 9 (Wi-Fi and T-Mobile), but today three more variants are being supported. Those three are Verizon’s Galaxy Tab 10.1, the unlocked Galaxy Tab 10.1, and surprisingly the Galaxy Tab 10.1v. I do not think that these nightly releases are directly flashable, but I will probably…

Samsung released the kernel source code for the newly released Galaxy Tab 10.1 a few weeks ago and everybody wondered where the love was for the Galaxy Tab 10.1v. Well Samsung did not want to play favorites and released the kernel source code for the 10.1v.

So what is the good of a source code? Two words – overclocked kernels. The Galaxy Tab 10.1 already has a 1.4 GHz overclocked kernel and now we can expect the same from its slightly older brother.

Are you an excited Galaxy Tab 10.1v owner? Let us know in the comments or forums.

A few weeks ago, the App of the Week was FlexT9, a keyboard that could do it all. Most notably was the ability to swipe or tap the words out. Swype on the other hand has never really had the option to tap out words. You could, but there was no predictive text or autocorrect which made it a headache. It made it impossible for me to warrant using it because of the pain typing in URLs was in the browser. Now Swype 3.0 Beta introduces predictive tap-typing.

I know a lot of you really like the Galaxy Tab 10.1v, but Vodafone UK just announced that it will be phasing out the Galaxy Tab 10.1v in favor of the slimmer Galaxy Tab 10.1. From the day that the redesigned Galaxy Tab 10.1 was announced, it was known that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 would not be around for long. It looks like those days will soon be upon us.

HDblog uploaded a video earlier this week demonstrating different browsers on the Galaxy Tab 10.1V that is available to some starting today. The video examines the speed and quality of the default Honeycomb browser, Dolphin Browser, and Opera Mobile. The results are consistent for the most part on the original Galaxy Tab, but the default browser has definitely started to catch up.

Portugal will get their hands on the Galaxy Tab 10.1V first starting tomorrow April 26th. It will cost a steep €589.90, which is equivalent to $860 USD. Netherlands will be getting it soon after. They specify a week 17 launch, which is between now and the first of May.
